Wheat Storage Problems in County Highlight Loan Rules
County wheat producers face storage and loan program hurdles. Moisture limits eligibility, with 14 1/2 percent cap and deadlines through December 31, 1942. Farm stored wheat earns 7 cents per bushel, with refunds possible if moved to market after April 30, 1943. Additional storage accrues after June 30, 1943, up to 5 cents per bushel. High moisture wheat should go to commercial elevators for drying.
